In My Mailbox - (29)

Everyone knows who this is hosted by, but in case you're not everyone, I'd just like to take a minute to let you know that In My Mailbox is hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren. You should definitely go and check out her awesome blog.


These two books were RAK gifts from the lovely Emma and the wonderful Harpreet! You should go and check out their blogs if you haven't already, and no, I'm not just saying that because they sent me awesome books! They're lovely ladies, and their blogs are awesome too.

Crank by Ellen Hopkins (Thank you Harpreet! You have no idea how long I've been wanting this book. Squee!)
Sticky Fingers by Niki Burnham (Thank you Emma. This sounds so, so good!)


I received these two stunners from Penguin (Thank you so, so much!) and I immediately devoured them. Needless to say, Bloodlines is AWESOME WICKED COOL FORKING FANTASTIC, and the VA Graphic Novel is also pretty great!



And these two are the last two books I will be buying for a while, due to my book ban challenge thingymabob. I've started Wolfsbane, although I'm not very far in. Have any of you read it? I've heard mixed things. Am worried! I'm also very annoyed about the cover change. They were worried about the previous covers not showing what the book is about, but look at that one. Seriously? But anyway, it's the content that matters. Not the most beautiful covers the books had before.. 

Wolfsbane by Andrea Cremer (Nightshade #2)
H.I.V.E #1 by Mark Walden

Leave your links below! I have all day to visit your blogs today, due to babysitting.

    Haven’t been seeing you around Amber. How have you been? Been meaning to get into the H.I.V.E series but I do like the new covers a lot more.

    You have a fantastic selection of books! "Sticky Fingers" looks great, so does "Wolfsbane" (I have "Nightshade" but haven't read it yet), and of course "Bloodlines" is going to be amazing! Enjoy!
    Also, thanks for stopping by my blog and I must say, I dig your blog header. Jensen Ackles is 10 different kinds of sexy!! =)

    I haven't read any Rachel Mead, but I would like to read this one. It sounds good. I can't stand when they keep changing the covers!! Stop it. Leave it alone.

    What the heck is that Wolfsbane cover? It's even different from the new second cover that I usually see. Do they have three different ones now??
    I'm finding a lot of new books this week through IMM - Sticky Fingers looks cute.

    Wolfsbane is really good but I like the first one better sadly. I think I'm going to have to get the VA graphic novel. It looks like fun!

    Wolfsbane = AMAZING however the ending = HORRIBLE!!! But only in the sense that it makes you long for Bloodrose.
    Goodluck with your book ban - I hope that you do better than I have. I'm really, REALLY bad at it.
    Happy reading!

    Really great IMM!
    I've heard great things about Sticky Fingers!
    I have Crank but have yet to read it! And Bloodlines! I want it so badly! And Wolfsbane! I so need that!
    And thank you for answering my question about if I should have a posting schedule or not. I think I will just post whenever I feel like it, while still having at least one or two reviews a week. :)
